Blackberry leaves are wilting and drying up, why?

Hello,

I have three blackberry vines that I bought last year and kept in small pots. I just got around to putting them in the ground, and they already had small to medium sized leaves on the vines.

Out of the three, I moved one plant into the direct sun but still in its same small original pot. It immediately began to wilt (the leaves).

Now I took all of them and put them into a small bed that I prepared with sandy loam. I noticed the next day or two that the second plant began to wilt. The first one that began wilting is pretty much now filled with wilted, drying up leaves. I have no idea why this is. I thought they were supposed to have direct sunlight and they did before even when they were in their pots.

Now All three of them are in the small bed and two of them look crazy and wilted and I have no idea of why. I'm in zone 8a. Is this happening because I put them in the ground too late? There are no signs of pests or disease or anything. They looked very healthy.

Please help. I don't understand why this is happening.
